Description

Returns the number of minutes between two specified TDateTime values.

Call MinutesBetween to obtain the difference, in minutes, between two TDateTime values. MinutesBetween counts only entire minutes. Thus, MinutesBetween reports the difference between 9:00:00 A.M. and 9:00:59:999 A.M. as 0, because the difference is one millisecond short of an entire minute.

MinutesBetween always returns a positive result and therefore the parameter values are interchangeable.
